Where is TommyBars Limited based?

TommyBars Ltd is based in West London, so all our delivery distances are worked out from the Goldhawk Road. Our company address is 5 Nasmyth Street, London W6 0HA. Company no. 11585024.

How much are TommyBars going to cost?

A set of 16x TommyBars costs about the same to hire as 8x Arri S60s, a couple Arri S360s, or a hybrid balloon, but it rigs much faster and comes without all the worries about weather. contact us for a quotation

Do TommyBars come with an operator?

If it’s the first time you’ve had some TommyBars out on your job, we prefer to have one of our recommended operators on your crew for the hire period. A bit like hiring a balloon or another specialist piece of kit, but you can rely on our operator to work with your electricians as an all-rounder too. As lighting crews get acquainted with TommyBars and how to rig them quickly and optimally, we will look at dry hire.

How long does it take to set up TommyBars?

Once your rigger has got the ladder beam on the basket of your machine of choice, it’d take our operator and another pair of hands about 45 minutes to get a set of 16x TommyBars ready to fly.

What sort of rigging do we need to supply?

We’ve done everything we can to minimise the weight of a TommyBars rig. All we need from your rigging department is a ladder beam that’s a bit longer than rig that you want, attached to the basket at the angle you want the TommyBars. 9’ or 10’ for a SIMPLE 8x, 18’ for a WIDE 16x.

How does insurance work?

Just like any equipment hire contract, your hired kit from TommyBars Limited must be covered by your production insurance policy from the moment it leaves our base until it returns to TommyBars Limited.

What are your hire terms?

Our T&Cs are UK standard, just as you’d see from any other equipment rental company. Feel free to call us to discuss them. We can always email you a copy.
